Bell, well known in Charlton county, has opened a flourishing school at Race Pond. He is well-icnown. therq^ And besides being an excellent Christian gentleman he has the reputation of being a splendid school teacher. Miss Annie Chase, of Folkston, may teach a school near Trader’s Hill. If she does, the pupils will receive in structions for the mind and soul, for our sister is an accomplished lady and devout Christian. Confirmation of her intention will be given through these columns. Some of our young friends were ter ribly distressed last week because of the reported death of Miss Stella Haw kins, who is visiting friends in Florida, and who has been quite ill, but’a tele gram lias allayed the trouble, and the young lady is reported not only alive but recovering. Mr. J, Rawls, of Race Pond, was in town last Saturday,-looking as fresh and smiling as a pickled cucumber. He brought us the money for four new subscribers at that place, and still some people are foolish enough to hint that the Headlight is not tlie leading paper of this country. The sheriff of Forsyth county, Ga., has gone to the Indian Territory for the purpose of bringing back with him Jacob Pettijohn, who was sentenced to death for murder in Georgia 29 y< ago.

UHLFELDER. Waycross, Ga., Aug. 17,1887. We are pleased to inform our readers that Prof. John P. Lanier, who is so well known all over Southern Georgia an accomplished artist, has fitted up handsome photograph gallery in Mallon’s Hall, this town, and will re main here as long as the patronage will justify. We do not hesitate in pro nouncing him one of the best photo graphic artists of the South, and his long and varied experience in the busi ness affords him a sufficient uumrantee of success. We often lament the death lr little ones, and when wc have a picture of their pretty faces our grief is not so poignant—we have some conso lation, and as John Lanier makes a specialty of taking , perfect pictures of babies, seed© it that you do not let this opportunity slip. And then, if the Great Reaper cats down* our tender flowers, we have something more than the little sailed dresses and half-worn shoes to remind us that departed little ones are holding a “lamp in the win dow for us.” One of our exchanges says: “Every editor in the State must see President Cleveland.” Well, all right; if every editor must see him, he will come to Waycross if he expects to catch a squint of our eye. The Headlight ab sorbs our whole attention, and we would not neglect it for so small a mat ter as seeing the President of the Uni ted States. Now if, as the aforesaid editor says, we must see Brother Cleveland, should he come to our office about six o’clock in the evening (if he comes before that time he will please sit down on the steps at the foot of tlie stairs—persons without business not allowed to loaf around the office or smoke our pipes) after we have finished: our work we will try to spare him a few moments of our time. After con versing with us a few minutes, it is quite probable that Grover will wish to Know more of us, get better acquainted, you see, therefore, we intend to have the piazza flojr made tight, in order that wc may make down a comfortable pallet for him to sleep on, because he will be certain to want to stay all: night awhile.

We learn from an observer that a bull was wading along in the edge of Flint river swamp, last Monday, nipping cane and keeping cool, when a large alligator made a dash at his nose, hut missed his hold. The bull made fight, and prodded the alligator with his horns. Then com menced a fierce and bloody encounter, in tlie shal low water, that beggars descript ion. The ‘gator struck with his tail and snapped furiously with his huge jaws, tearing the skin and flesh in big strips from the hull. The bull got his horns into the ‘gator’s sides, End lifting his huge ccasras, tossed him high and dry on the ground, and, following up with a deep bellow, rushed again upon his foe. The alligator met him with a terrible blow of the tail knocking off one horn and bring ing the bull to his knees. The other horn got in under a foreleg of the gator, and the gator, getting a* Merchants and others visiting Savan nah would do woll to take the street car for the Harnett House.

She had been ill for some time with malarial fever, and while her death was expected it was none the less a severe shock. Our cor respondent says she was a lady well liked by all who knew her, and dearly loved by her friends and family. Our sympathy is ex tended to the bereaved. A PAIR OP SHOES. One day last week Waltertown, two of the woods hands, Robert Perry and Jim Evans, became in volved in dispute over the owner ship of a pair of shoes, resorting to blows, when Jim Evans, drew his pistol, and" as Perry turned his back Evans shot him. The ball entered near the spine and lodged in the abdominal cavity. He was brought here for medical treat ment, but recovery i$ doubtful.

Jt is constantly hinted aronnd that the Brunswick & Western Railroad ■oill soon be put in first class order and extended westward. We would rather see the reality than be so often duped with these reported hints. The distinguished editor of the Blackshear Georgian has expressed the opinion that the editor of the Head- lsgiit did not have sense enough to know when a subject' was exhausted. That may be true,, but we beg leave to suggest that as a “subject,” the afore said distinguished editor is an exhaust ed “mi’ijecl,” fit only for the lunatic nsjfiura- He has our sympathy. Mrs. J. L. Walker has been visiting relatives near Milledgeville during the past two or three weeks, and the Doc tor has been singing “I am lonely to night, dear, without thee,” Very fre quently of late. If the clever lady remains from home much longer, we may have to send her husband to Milledgeville to consult Dr. Green. Won’t you please come home? E. J. Murhee, a young man from Millwood, was in town last weex, and m his return asked the engineer to ’slow up” at the 77 mile post, to allow him an opportunity to get ofi. The train was not slowed up, however, and as the young roan was waiting on the platform, his foot slipped and he fell, hnrting himself considerably. The girls are nursing him now, and some bad boys have hinted that Mr. Murhee “did it all on purpose.” After much persuasion, we induced Mr. Jeffords, up about Waresboro, to let us put his name on our subscription list, giving him the privilege of paying us in farm products, or stopping, either, in three' months, if he didn’t like the paper. He came up last Thurs day, pud the cash for one year and says he “will take the Headlight as long aB he Uvea.” He likes the editor and the paper, too. ’ The lady that shares our sorrows and darns our troubles kind o’ hankers after the edi- } Not being content with helping themselves along in the way of prosperity, that live, energetic j firm, Blackshear & Mitchell, are helping humanity by giving pure, cool water to the thirsty populance.
